Brief summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to monitor hemodynamic differences between central veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) and peripheral VA ECMO. The main question it aims to answer is: * Efficacy of the different cannulation strategies for the establishment of for VA-ECMO circulation on hemodynamics and organ perfusion. Participants require VA ECMO support, will be divided into two groups in an intention-to-treat analysis: central artery cannulation and peripheral artery cannulation. Researchers will analyze different cannulation strategies for VA-ECMO and identify potential advantages and disadvantages for two groups of VA-ECMO.

Interventions

Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) is mainly used for circulatory support in patients with severe cardiopulmonary failure. VA ECMO drains the blood from the venous system followed pumping the blood back into the arterial vascular compartment after oxygenation. It can be divided into two cannulation strategies for VA ECMO support, namely peripheral VA ECMO and central VA ECMO based on the arterial cannulation site. Peripheral VA ECMO is established via the femoral artery (FA), whereas axillary artery (AX) is an arterial cannulation site in central VA-ECMO.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Mitral valve area(cm2)Through VA ECMO support completion, an average of 1 weekechocardiography
Oxygen saturation-no. (%)Through VA ECMO support completion, an average of 1 weekBlood gas analysis
Left ventricular end-diastolic volume (ml)Through VA ECMO support completion, an average of 1 weekechocardiography
Left ventricular End-systolic volume (ml)Through VA ECMO support completion, an average of 1 weekechocardiography
Stroke volume (ml)Through VA ECMO support completion, an average of 1 weekechocardiography

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Rate of successful weaning from VA ECMOThrough study completion, up to 2 yearsWeaning success is defined as survival after complete removal of the extracorporeal circuit without requirement for further mechanical support or heart transplant.
VA ECMO durationThrough VA ECMO support, an average of 1 weekLength of VA ECMO support
Cannulation-related complicationsThrough study completion, up to 2 yearsCannulation-related complications include bleeding, limb ischemia, revision of cannulation site, wound complications. Limb ischemia is defined as ischemia requiring any surgical procedure, including revision of the arterial/distal perfusion cannula, fasciotomy for compartment syndrome, gangrene, or amputation. Wound complication is defined as infection or requirement of an additional surgical intervention, such as arterial repair, washout with or without vacuum-assisted closure, and muscle flap closure.
Duration of ICU stayThrough study completion, up to 2 yearsIntensive care unit length of stay
Duration of hospital stayThrough study completion, up to 2 yearsLength of hospital stay
